Waterford IT Students' Union

The Union Is a Democratic Organisation Run By Students For Students. We Are Here For You. Decision making within the union takes place on three levels: Student Body Class Rep Council The Executive Student Body The student body is just another word for all of the students of the Institute together. The student body is the supreme decision making body within the union and has final say on all matters of importance affecting the union. How Does The Student Body Have It's Say? This is done in two ways; firstly, by voting in elections for class reps, part-time, and sabbatical officers.Secondly, by voting in referendum which take place on various different topics throughout the year. Class Rep Council The Assembly is the ‘parliament’ of the students union and is made up of all class representatives and executive officers. The Assembly meets once a month and adopts policy for the union as well as holds the executive offi cers accountable for the work they do. The Executive The Executive is the ‘cabinet’ of the students union and comprises both full time sabbatical officers (the president, deputy president of Welfare, deputy president of Education) and part time officers who continue as full time students while serving the union on a part time basis and each school convener.
